How the System Works
The Video Doorbell system includes 2 parts. One is the video doorbell at your porch. The other is the electronic chime plugged into the indoor power socket. The video doorbell is powered by existing doorbell wires. In order to get sufficient power from the doorbell circuit, the user needs to bypass the existing doorbell chime on the circuit.
EufySecurity App Installation
Search keyword “EufySecurity” on App Store or Google Play and install the App on your phone.
Register and log in to the App. Add video doorbell and scan the QR code for
the later installation process.
The QR code can be found on the back of the documentation folder or on the
back of the video doorbell.
Tips:
Follow these steps to complete the setup on the eufy Security Video Doorbell.
Step 1. Scan the QR Code.
Step 2. Physical installation.
Step 3. Go to the App and finish the system setup.
Video Doorbell Installation
Note: Make sure you have installed the EufySecurity App and scan the QR code
before starting handling the doorbell installation.
Step 1
Ring the existing doorbell, make sure it’s working and locate the place of
your existing chimes in the house.
Step 2
Shut off the doorbell power supply. If you’re not sure, shut off the main
power supply in your house.
Turn the lights in your home on / off to make sure the electricity in your
house is properly shut off.
Note: Always be careful when handling electricity wiring. If you’re not comfortable doing it yourself, do consult a qualified electrician.
Step 3
Find the doorbell chime in your house, then remove the cover and find the
screw terminals with TRANS and FRONT markings. Use the provided jumper for the
existing chime to connect the two terminals. This is to bypass the doorbell
chime and will not affect the normal operation of the circuit.
Note:
-
The video doorbell requires the user to bypass the existing chime first to get sufficient power.
Without this step, the video doorbell will still be able to power on but will operate unstably. -
In most cases, the existing doorbell circuit looks like the below chart. Find the existing doorbell chime in your house, remove the cover and take a photo of the wire connection in case you need to reconnect it.
-
Use the provided jumper to connect FRONT and TRANS terminals to bypass the chime on the circuit. Do not remove the original wire connecting to the chime. If your doorbell chime has different markings or you have multiple chimes, refer to the help session in the App for the custom wiring instructions or consult a qualified electrician.
-
When the jumper is in place, the existing chime will not sound anymore.
What is required: Jumper for existing chime / Phillips-Head Screwdriver
Step 4
Remove the existing doorbell button at the front door. Pull the two wires out
carefully when removing the old doorbell. Straighten the wire ends if
necessary.
What’s required: Phillips-Head Screwdriver
Step 5
Determine the mounting position of the doorbell. Consider the below factors:
- Check if you can reuse the existing holes and anchors on the wall or door frame.
- If you are drilling the mounting holes for the first time the recommended mounting height is 48″ from the ground.
If you are mounting the doorbell on a wooden wall or board, do NOT drill holes. Skip to Step7 and use screws directly to mount the Mounting Bracket.
If your wall is stucco, brick, or concrete, you need to drill holes. Use the Screw Hole Positioning-Card to mark the position and drill holes with a 1/4″ (6.35mm) drill bit.
What are required: Power Drill with 1/4″ (6.35mm) Drill Bit / Screw Hole Positioning-Card
Optional: Use the 15° mounting wedge as a supplementary mounting bracket if you wish to see more on a specific side.
Step 6
Use the anchors provided when installing in materials such as stucco, brick,
or concrete. There is no need to use anchor If you were installing on the
wooden doorframe.
What’s required: Anchors
Step 7
Lead the two doorbell wires through the central square hole on the bracket
before starting mounting.
Insert the two screws provided through the screw holes or through the 15°
mounting wedge(Install the mounting bracket to the 15° mounting wedge in
prior), and fasten the screws tightly.
What are required: Mounting Bracket / Screw Packs / 15° Mounting
Wedge(Optional) / PhillipsHead Screwdriver
Step 8
Connect the wires to the two terminals at the back of the doorbell, then
tighten the terminal screws.
Wire can connect to any terminal as the electric current is alternating
current.
Note: To prevent short-circuit, make sure the wires are not touching each
other after connecting them to the terminals. If the wires are too short, use
the extension wires and wire nuts provided to make them longer. Use electrical
wiring tape to secure the connection if the wall doesn’t have space for wire
nuts.
What have required: Extension Wires and Wire Nuts (Optional) / Video
doorbell / Philips-Head Screwdriver
Step 9
There are 2 thermal conductive pads on the mounting bracket. They’re used to
conduct heat from the video doorbell to the metal bracket. Remove the films on
the thermally conductive pads before you mount the doorbell.
Hook the doorbell on top of the mounting bracket and then snap the doorbell
bottom to the bracket.
You may hear a “click” sound.
Use the doorbell detaching pin provided if you wish to detach the doorbell
from the mounting Bracket.
Press and hold the hole on the bottom of the doorbell and then lift its bottom
to take it off.
The detaching pin has a magnet pad on the black-color side. Stick it on the
iron surface where you can find it easily.
Note: The oval holes are speaker holes. Only press the round hole to detach
the doorbell.
What’s required: Doorbell detaching pin
Step 10
Switch the doorbell or master circuit breaker to ON.
Step 11
Wait until the doorbell ring flashes yellow. Then follow the on-screen
instructions in EufySecurity App to connect the video doorbell to your home
Wi-Fi.
Step 12
Follow the on-screen instructions in EufySecurity App. Install the doorbell
power connector to the doorbell chime and then pair it to your video doorbell.
Note: One video doorbell can link up to 4 electronic chimes. Use the volume
and music buttons on the side of the electronic chime to adjust the volume and
ringtone.
What is required: Doorbell chime / Doorbell chime power connector
